Support navigation and wayfinding ✎

Consistency is one of the cornerstones of good usability.

In long lists of links, it's helpful to show users which links they've already followed so they can focus on unseen content. Browsers do not tend to let you style visited links with anything but the color property.

It's important the search facility on your site is logically and conventionally placed and constructed for optimal accessibility.

It's important to provide consistent navigation regions to navigate between a site's pages and—where there is a lot content on each page—between sections of pages.

Users can find their way around a web site more easily and confidently if they know where they are.

When positioning elements using CSS, it's possible to place them in a position that does not reflect their location in the source order. This can have unexpected side effects for keyboard-navigation users.
